Copeestion of the KIdneys.

S. j. Thompson, of No. 47s Swan street, Buff
falo, n. y, writes of his remarkable cure OF
congestion ofthe kidneys;
Three years ago was attacked with conges.
tion of the kidneys. Ny. physician, besides
administering internal remedies. had applied
on my back, over the affected region. two
Allcocks Porous Plasters l recovered In the
course of about two weeks. A year. after ey-
posure brought on similar attack, but 1t
seemed as ifthe congestion was more severe.
Certainly, had more pain and difficulty In
passing water. Instead OF calling doctor this
time, concluded to try plasters alone. so |
purchased box of Alcock's Porous Plasters,
and applied two fresh ones every day. The
pain quickly lessened, the water flowed more
freely after the first application, aud in Just
six days was completely restored aud able to
resume my occupation.
